Ebonite Primal Instinct Bowling Ball

The color of the ball is very distracting when rollowing down the lane. I'm sorry for the price $89.00. It doen't do anything that was advertised. I have been bowling twenty years and my advice is read all the reviews and do as much homework before purchasing this ball. For me a total waste of money. I am a full roller so putting side wait on this ball won't help me. So I decided to roll this ball on my second shift league where the heads are burnt and the lanes are dry, and I get some back end but it won't hold a line. To others that are thinking about purchasing this ball I have one for sale. $60.00 or best offer.

Ball Specs: 15 pounds Top Weight: 3.25 oz Pin out: 2-3 inches Factory Surface Layout: 4" 45 degree This put the pin in the center of my grip with cg kicked out towards my axis and the mass bias at 45 degrees from my axis. I needed a weight hold to take it back to around 7/8 positive. The weight hole was two inches past my axis which is 4 3/8'' from my center of grip. Lane Condtions: Second Shift Brunswick Anvil Lane broken down heads with carry down and out of bounds from 5 to the gutter. My Stats: Power Stroker with around 10-30 degree axis tilt, around 15-16 mph off my hand and around medium revs Reaction: I took a chance on the Primal Instinct. I saw it on the discount sheet from my distributors and it was the same time I was encountering severe over under the second shift league I sub in regularly. I'm glad I put some holes in this one. The roll of the Primal reminds me alot of the roll I used to get from my old Ebonite Red Wolf. Which was one of the gr

With the PI I play very much gladly. Presupposition for a good reaction on the lane is a consistently clean ball surface. Apart from that the ball is good to play and well readably. The PI does not tolerate mistakes on the release. I play the ball on a 40feet Christmas three pattern medium to heavy oil and can say the PI very well with it manages. I sand the Ball every 30 - 35 Games for a consistent Ball Reaction. I can recommend the ball with quiet conscience then he is worth anyway his money. For beginner I would not recommend the ball Greetings from Germany Heinzi

Did not have the time to play around with this much but it seems to be a nice ball if you can control its reaction on the lane. So far played it for about 10 games and hit 170's-190's with it. Never rolled a 200 with it yet. Only if I can control its reaction. I try to adjust but it seems to go brooklyn on dry conditions, even throwing out to the 3 board. Depending on the wear and tear of the lanes. This ball will most likely not last you a series. At the most, 2 games before you have to pull out a longer ball.

I am still fairly new to bowling, so I leave all the technical stuff up to my pro. All I know is that I had to Fuze Eliminators that had both worn out completely and I bought this ball to replace them as a fist game ball. I was not disappointed in the result, this ball gave me no surprises and exhibited no bad traits for my game at all. It took about 6 practice games to get dialed in and develop a new stratagy. Standing 5 boards left of center (25 board) and aiming around the third arrow (15 board), this ball hooked right into the pocket everytime (as long as I did not do something dumb). Once the lanes dried out (game three on league night), I had to put this ball back in my bag and went back to my old "hand me down" Ti Boss 2.

We have drilled several of these balls in house using the Mo Pinel Asymmetrical layout sheet. The Primial Instinct is a very controllable ball and over the summer sport league several bowlers used this ball to give them the extra control that you need on those tougher sport shots. On a wet/dry conditions, the Primial is good for not over reacting when it hit the dry area. If you are looking for a skid/flip ball, this is not the ball for you. If you are looking for something that will cover 5-10 boards and be very controllable, then this might just be the ball that you have been looking for in your bag.

this is a great oil ball . gets a little lenght hard reveing decent hit.it took a little getting used to reading because of the colors. it handles oil real good i can play inside or out with a little speed. it hooks a lot more than any partical ball ive ever used. i think they are right resin is better for oil than partical. on a typical house shot 38 buffed good backends this thing opens up the lane big time. mine is drilled full roller pin at 7 oclock cg in the middle of span. the cover is real easy to keep clean wich is a big pluss. i
